Swimming the Rio Grande

Scott, Cindy, Susan and I enjoyed the refreshing water of the Rio Grande in Big Bend National Park in Texas. June 1968.
 

Indoor Campout

 

Lowell and Vala enjoyed camping in the house. Vala would never go in the tent but she put lots of things in it. Lowell loved it. It has binoculars (below), camp stove, lantern, bug box. But how do you get the tent back in the box? 😁

 

Photo Bomb

Dear Stacy photo bombing me on our camping trip in 1994.

Campers in Training

One of our first camping trips to Colorado. Rather looks like we set up camp in a field.

Not a Fan

I love this photo of Hayden in the field on her first camping trip. Not sure why she is standing there crying but it speaks to her general feeling about camping, although she has been a good sport about it many times over.

Camping Portrait

Thanks to Cindy who found this lovely photo of herself, Scott and me on a camping trip in 1966. We're looking surprisingly normal for a camping trip. Must have been the first day. 

First Camping Trip

Stacy's love of camping began in 1983 on a trip to Gunnison, CO, with our friends, the Frys. Here she is with Anita.
